Built in AD 1648 and called after himself, the town and Fort of Roopangarh was constructed by Maharaja Roop Singh of Kishangarh State between the mid - 17th to 18th
centuries. This is called the 'Golden Period' of Kishangarh Art and Culture, and saw to the flourishing of the world famous school of Miniature Paintings.
Originally a nine turreted Fort, Roopangarh Fort has been built over and added on by several generations and the different styles can still be seen in the structure. Now beautifully restored and
renovated into a hotel, it is the first 'War-Fort' to have been done so. The nineteen large rooms are individually and tastefully decorated, keeping in mind the history and heritage surrounding it. |
